The RUGER Lightweight commander is right up your alley. It is next on my list. Carried a 5 inch 1911 for two years. Been carrying a commander 4.25" for over a year. Perfect length. Now the lightweight commander is about a quarter pound lighter. All for around 600-700
We have owned more than a few of these. Problem is when I get one tuned up to my liking one of my kids abscond with it or a friend just absolutely has to have it.
Yes, I like them. I just built one up for the spouse. Not for me..........the spouse.
